How does the hydraulic press work?

A hydraulic press is a device using a hydraulic cylinder to generate a compressive force. How does it work?

POV: you still don't understand how hydraulic press works

Let me translate that into english for you.

tube 1 and tube 2 are cylinders. Tube 1 is thinner than tube 2... which means that if you move 1 inch vertically, you displace a certain amount of liquid... and if you press that same amount of liquid UP on the second tube, that cylinder will move up by LESS than an inch (because the tube is thicker than the first one).

So... if you are pressing down with 100 lbs on the thin side, the fat side isn't moving as far, but it will press a lot more than 100 lbs.

It's very similar to leverage.

Imagine a seesaw that both sides are equal. One side moves up a foot, the other moves down a foot. Completely equal. No leverage change for either side.

Now, imagine 1 side moves up and down a foot, but the other side moves up and down only an inch (because it's closer to the fulcrum... look up "fulcrum" if you need to). The same force applied to the other side covers a smaller distance, making the force much greater.

Same concept for pistons. If a force moves 1 piston a certain amount, and the other piston is moved (by the same force) a different amount, that different amount of movement generates a different amount of force.

Add to this that the input shaft (the thin one) is generally pressed by a lever itself, and you can multiply your manual strength dozens or even hundreds or thousands of times... but you have to repeat the motion numerous times (pump it several times).

It's like being given a lecture by a drunk physics teacher

Simple explanation:
There is a pump system that keeps pumping water into the press. It pumps water at the same small strength everytime, while the press keep pressing down with more strength because there is more water.
Literally how Pascal made Pascal's law.

I don't know how a hydraulic press works.... I must deal with it

[sundip]

In low gear in bicyle you do more rotation but it makes easier in higher road. You trade distance for force.

Try getting someone....anyone...to narrate instead of this unlistenable robotic voice

[FBClipsz]

Here because I Blagged my way onto £14.80 an hour press machine job. Wish me luck

[InfernalRipatorium]

This is way too much for my head to comprehense...

[Kuplung]

Finally a video without stupid long intros thank you!

[douwewijtsma]

This robotic unsettling voice is impossible to listen to for more than a minute

[aditishinde]

Which type of actuators are used in hydraulic press?

[howardjoven]

It lacks animation to make it more understandable.

[g__p__]

Can I get explanation for F1, P1, I1, S1

[historiaaxia]

what apk did you use for that animation ?

[justingood]

This is crazy
But what about the wires (or whatever is it) holding the liquids? How strong do they have to be to be able to press hundreds of thousands of pounds and not burst doesn’t the water want to escape anyway possible.

Why sound is so unreal.. Voice of lady.🤕🤕🙄🙄

[mannb]

There is only one hydraulic cylinder. So where is Pascals Law applied? You mean hydraulic pump acts as smaller cylinder?

[LegionFarming]

if s2 is double of s1 that means f2 is double of f1

[syedfardeen]

Can u upload a separate video on directional valve relating with this current video
How valve opened, closed and direction changed according to timings
